Donald Trump's new Immigration Policy to end H-1B Visa Lottery: Here's what it means
The White House's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) has approved a proposed rule that could change how H-1B visas are given to specialty occupation workers. According to a Bloomberg report, the approval hints that the rule could be made public soon. As per the report, OIRA cleared the rule on August 8, 2025. Currently, the H-1B visa program is heavily used by the tech industry, allowing 85,000 new visas each year. Employers submit applications in the spring, and a random lottery decides which ones can move forward. What the new H-1B visa rule may mean President Donald Trump has long criticized the H-1B program, claiming some companies use it to replace US workers with cheaper foreign labor, especially the tech industry. If the new rule changes the H-1B selection to a wage-based system, only jobs in the top two wage groups (3 and 4) will be filled by H-1B workers. This would help protect entry-level jobs for Americans, but it would also make it harder for foreign graduates to find jobs in the US. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like You will never turn off your computer again. Undo From lottery to wage-based system Notably, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services ( USCIS ) has not shared details yet, but the plan is expected to bring back a proposal from the first Trump administration. The plan, as per reports, was aimed to replace the current random lottery with a system that gives priority to applicants based on wages. The first Trump administration introduced the wage-priority idea as part of its 'Buy American, Hire American' policy, arguing it would ensure visas went to highly skilled, well-paid foreign workers. However, the Biden administration withdrew the plan in 2021 after receiving over 1,000 public comments opposing it. Critics said the rule would sharply cut the number of eligible foreign workers, especially in entry-level positions. In 2021, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) suggested ranking applications based on four wage levels, giving preference to the highest-paid roles. Federal courts also blocked related efforts to raise the minimum wage levels for H-1B holders and narrow the definition of qualifying jobs. However, supporters of the wage-priority system argue it protects American jobs, while opponents say it limits opportunities for talented but lower-paid professionals. AI Masterclass for Students.

Elon Musk shares damning evidence that he is 'more trustworthy' than Sam Altman
Elon Musk has decided to stir things up again as he posted a screenshot of himself asking ChatGPT AI, 'Who is more trustworthy: Elon or Sam Altman?' And ironically, the AI chose Elon. That little move kicked the already simmering feud between him and OpenAI's Sam Altman into the stratosphere. Elon Musk shares a screenshot of GPT asking who is more trustworthy, him or Sam Altman.(Reuters) ChatGPT chooses Elon Musk Elon Musk's rant against OpenAI continued as he shared a screengrab asking the AI to choose between him and Sam Altman. In a surprising turn of events, the AI bot chose Elon. Sharing the conversation, the tech mogul wrote, 'There you have it.' Elon Musk- Sam Atlman feud explained This is not just playful rivalry. The tension started way back, when Elon and Sam co-founded OpenAI in 2015. But by 2018, Elon left the board as he was not happy with OpenAI ditching its nonprofit roots for a for-profit path. He even tried (and failed) a nearly $97 billion takeover in 2025. Sam laughed it off, calling it a clever distraction tactic, and threw shade right back, hinting that Musk pushes his tech ventures from a place of insecurity, The Guardian reported. Also read: ChatGPT beats Grok in AI chess final, Gemini finishes third, Elon Musk said… The latest sparks flew when Elon accused Apple of playing favorites, pointing out that ChatGPT was dominating the App Store while his own Grok chatbot was being pushed aside. He threatened legal action, accusing Apple of antitrust violations. That set Sam off, who shot back accusing Elon of using X's algorithm in shady ways to promote himself and bury rivals. To prove it, Sam dared Musk to sign an affidavit swearing he's never tweaked X to benefit his own companies. Musk's response? A blunt: 'You liar,' pointing out that Altman's post got three million views, despite Elon having way more followers. Sam's charm offensive continued in the news: he downplayed Musk's relevance amid GPT-5 buzzing and OpenAI's broader mission of advancing safe, beneficial AI. Meanwhile, Elon retorted that his Grok model beats GPT-5 any day, and called Altman 'Scam Altman." FAQs Q: What did Elon Musk ask ChatGPT? A: He asked, 'Who is more trustworthy: Elon or Sam Altman?'—and the AI picked Elon. Q: Why are Musk and Altman feuding? A: Disagreements over OpenAI's direction, Musk's departure, the failed takeover, and competing AI ventures fueled years of tension. Q: What did Musk accuse Apple of? A: Favoring ChatGPT in App Store rankings and sidelining his AI app, Grok, raising antitrust concerns.
